93
Q

the steps of inflammatory response phase

A

injury to cell
chemical mediators liberated (histamine, leukotrienes, cytokines)

phagocytosis
clot formation

97
Q

full healing may require 12 months, follows similar healing course as other vascular tissues. repair phase will involve random laying down of collagen which, as scar forms, will mature and realign in reaction to joint stresses and strain

98
Q
